Went to see my husband today and he is doing well. He is in a closed ward at the moment. In talking with him, I found out that the night he admitted himself he actually had a strong enough desire to stop the destruction his addiction was causing that he parked the vehicle, locked his keys in it and then walked to the local VA. You have to understand that not only was the VA a good distance from where he parked the vehicle, but he also had to walk through and past areas that he usually got his Crack from. I am so proud of him. We are taking it one step and one day at a time and talking about what changes need to be made to help him. One change we came up with to start off with is for him to work in a neighboring town. One he has never gotten drugs from. We have both been doing a lot of reading, but any suggestion is helpful.
One day and One prayer at a time!!
